Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Forest Minister Ramniwas Rawat’s defeat has not only shocked the party-hoppers but also dampened the enthusiasm of legislator from Bina, Nirmala Sapre. After defecting from the Congress to the BJP, Sapre did not resign from the House membership.

They are Rahul Lodhi (Damoh), Ranveer Jatav (Gohad), Girraj Dandotiya (Dimni), Imarti Devi (Dabra), Raghuraj Kansana (Morena), Munnalal Goyan (Gwalior), Aidal Singh Kansana (sumawali), and Jasmant Jatav (Karera) have lost the election after quitting their parental political organisation.
